You can flame me when I admit that I am one of those people who literally drives 5 mph on icy/snowy roads. I drive like a little old lady and I don't give a shit if you don't like it. Go around me and end up in a ditch, see if I care. People hate me. I've started making my husband drive me to work on days like that.
This only pisses me off when people do it in the far left lane of the freeway. It is actually a law here to keep right to yield to faster traffic (regardless of how fast the person behind you wants to go), and it always astounds me when I pass right on a long line of cars only to see one oblivious person puttering along at 45 mph. It makes me wish I had a rocket launcher attached to the from of my car so I could blow people clean off the road. @PinkLady2015, salty enough for you?
Edited to add; 'normal' freeway speed here is 75-80 mph. People here don't fuck around.
@thebigoaktree ... I totally agree with that though!!! but worthy effort.. I was hoping more for some sort of ridiculous statement like mothers that don't breastfeed are terrible human beings so that I could spend the next 6 hours at work mercilessly berating them. I'm just really bored at work today!!!!
I understand why OP is upset but the poster from yesterday was flamed and the post was indeed in an UO thread so it is what it is..
And she said the posts made her uncomfortable - not that someone shouldn't post it. And "several women" did not say the same.
Wow, someone posted a whole thread about my UO. I feel so special.
It's an unpopular opinion. I thought that was the point. I didn't say don't post about miscarriages I just hate reading them. And...I have a right to my opinion. I have known women who had miscarriages, they all deal with it in their own way. I personally, wouldn't post about it on an Internet forum...Me, I would rather seek comfort from my loved ones than some strangers on the Internet. Everybody is different and has their own opinions on the matter.
Btw, I didn't get my "ass handed to me" and I still stand by my original comment. There was one day where there were 4 threads of women who lost their babies. It's incredibly sad to read, especially when you've seen those women post in other places. So, yes, I hate reading them...but I still do. And each time my heart still goes out to those woman.
ETA: removed "get a grip ladies" it wasn't directed at you crazy Disney lovin' SOB's (I kid, I kid)
My UO; I agree with you. I don't like the loss posts because they are a forced reminder of how common miscarriage is, and at 9+6 I don't want to think about that. However, everyone is entitled to grieve in their own way and its better to have a post than to wonder where a poster has gone. I just choose not to read them, and that is my right on a public forum.
Here you go @PinkLady2015.. I hate moms who stay at home in their snobby yoga pants. I hate moms who work in their snobby suits and suv's. I don't like if you aren't religious. I can't stand if you are religious. Screw you if you snip a boys penis and how dare you not circumcise him! Home Births are terrible and if you have a hospital birth you drug your child.
Now if it wasn't clear I don't mean any of those things.
Spanking. My temp roomie just had his 7 year old down to visit, and I learned that the only form of discipline her mother uses is to "hit" her. She pee'd her pants and hid it from her dad, when he found her soiled clothes hidden in her suitcase he asked why she hid them and she said "Mommy hits me when I have an accident."
FFFC; I think CPS should be so far up this woman's ass she can't sit down. While we can go back and forth on the spanking/not spanking debate, I think a child peeing their pants is something that should be talked through and run by a doctor (to check for uti's and the like), not something that should make a kid cower in fear of being hit.
@msuzannah, I called you out (nothing personal! I would have called out anybody.) I have no reason to dislike you, and I do understand there have been some things said on this bmb that could get a persons blood boiling. With that said, I will not hold a grudge! Shit happens, people say things, nbd. I appreciate you coming back and owning it

Have at it, chickadees.
In our home we will never use corporal punishment. I teach my child to "keep his hands to himself" and to "use his words." If I were to hit/spank/whatever my child, I would be going against all of what i'm trying to teach him.
Furthermore, corporal punishment is used as a scare tactic, IMO. They are afraid of the pain that will be inflicted if they act in a certain way. I never want my children to fear me. Respect, yes. Fear, no. Fear grows up with children. It manifests into something bigger and different. Kids grow up. They get into bigger troubles and they don't want to tell their parents because they're afraid of the reaction they'll receive. We as parents should be builiding respectful, trustful relationships with our children because we are their advocates. Instilling fear over actions dilutes that.
This is probably pot stirring but this was again Complaining about our board but in a different forum the same one linked earlier complaining about the insentive post someone wrote yesterday in UO.
Eta crappy phone did poor screen shot see post below
@Lindsayleigh1989 you post this after I say "nothing personal" Once I can forgive, nbd Twice I start to go hmmmm, why keep coming back then? eta: I'm probably one of those "idiots" though, so what do I know!

Cuz she didn't want to start drama! So she posted crap about July BMB on the June BMB where there couldn't possibly be anybody else crossing over and it would never get back to us. Right? Totally safe, drama free plan...
Oh hell. I can't keep up with all of this. I apologize supporting another mother of losses and I did clarify that I was wrong and apologized. Then I clarified in that post that I was being rash and not everyone on this board bothers me there are a few. I don't want to start drama which is why I have stated multiple times I was in the wrong. I'll state it once again. Emotions got the better of me and I was feeling hurt so I said things that were rude and harsh and I have taken them back.
Another actual confession: Lost my mind over a project at work involving heavy js and json (coding languages I'm not great with). Had a complete and total meltdown on my manager like a freaking IDIOT! 4 hours later, have the solution, understand how to read and write the js and json I need. Now having to apologize and try to convince everyone I'm not completely incompetent. I'm blaming pregnancy hormones. Why am I being such an unprofessional shit and why would I ever assume I couldn't figure something out!? That's not like me! I'm usually an overly-confident asshole who manages to hack together anything I need. UGH WTF pregnancy?! New rule- no melting down until sitting on a bug/problem for over 24 hours.
While you clarified that we are not all "idiots" it seems pretty unnessary to complain on multiple boards about a few people.
Not sure if that is geared towards me or her? Ha but I do love me some real housewives!
I'm guessing me! You're right I don't need to complain on multiple boards but I felt that I could relate to another mother feeling the same way I did and so I posted and agreed. And real housewives is pretty much always appropriate

^^^ Me, at work... again. UGH!!!!
He, at least you had a legit problem. I cried last night because I was starving but didn't want to eat anything because I was so nauseated, but being hungry makes me nausea worse. Bring on the Kleenex.
**I thought about editing this to change "me nausea" to "my nausea", but fuck it, ya'll, I'm a leprechaun!
Also I wanted to clarify the pgal board and June month were two totally different things. I didn't want to start drama about losses but I'm more than happy to let people know when I don't like them @Lindsayleigh1989 oh my that's a job... I don't think I could ever work with teens! Especially when I'm pregnant I get annoyed about everything!

Actually it was to Lindsey... You had already apologized. It was time to LET. IT. GO.
@Nerdchild I'm dying at my desk and doing the creepy silent laugh to keep my bumping on the DL. "Me Nausea"---and now I'm saying it in a Leprachaun voice.
my fffc if my name is in my screen name at least spell it right! And for the record her second apology she posted as I was writing that. And has not seen it yet.
I hate that stupid "elf on a shelf". I really hope the trend is over by the time this baby is old enough for Xmas.
I despise this elf on the shelf thing with a passion I think it's so stupid. We have family members who do this with their kids and I just want to shake them.

How many times does someone need to apologize? I'm just not a big fan of pot stirring, LindSAY

You do realize that you did the same Pot stirring by calling me out right? Especially after you saw that she and I were cool with each other right?
